The Long Distance Runners Sally Ann lyrics

I thought I was strong, I was wrong, I was misguided
So I stuck around waiting for your sound darlin' I won't deny it
So I rang up a friend she said you've run off again to where you haven't decided
Well Susie says it's my fault, what an insult

At the Sally Ann I saw you holding hands playing follow the leader
I never seen him before, fill me in on the score I can't stand this soft-seater
So let's get on with the show, I didn't want you to go I thought that you didn't either
At the Sally Ann holding hands

Well sometimes you come across a certain girl that you find too hard to resist
And she wouldn't make you think twice about smashing some stranger in the face with your fist
Well that's how I felt staring up over that old collection of bad records at my local Sally Ann
But that's when I heard a voice in my ear somewhere saying, “Son, sometimes you've gotta turn the other cheek”

So that's what I did
So I made it over to the nearest check-out and laid my last three dollars down
And that check-out girl looked up at me so sweetly and I didn't feel too bad
No, I didn't feel too bad, no I didn't feel too bad
In fact I felt pretty good

I thought I was strong, I was wrong, I was misguided
So I stuck around waiting for your sound darlin' I won't deny it
So I rang up a friend she said you've run off again to where you haven't decided
At the Sally Ann don't deny it. At the Sally Ann don't deny it
